Arlo and the Orca

Anger

Anger feels like letting your rage out

A clenched fist

Blood, salty sweat

Growling and yelling

Rough and hot

Like a red face

Anger smells like danger 

Like air

Shouting and screaming

Painful and hurtful

Madness and crazy actions of destruction

Like smoke

Burning coal

A fire raging and growing limitlessly

Anger is the emotion your want to show or not

It starts when we get upset about something.

 

A collaborative poem written by all of Room 8. This poem expresses our feelings about anger looking through the eyes of Arlo from Arlo and the Orca by Monique Walker.

This week Monique and Stacey came to class and presented Monique’s book. We learnt that it’s okay to cry and life can be dark and moody with waves of emotion BUT we have to remember the sun will come back and always shine again.

Room 8 wanted to say thank you to Stacey and Monique Walker for presenting Monique’s book, to Katheryn and Jesse for doing an introduction dance about the book and doing fun activities throughout it.
